dis will b mi wen i see ma bi0 p@per:



that's how little i care bout eet. but then again, bio in year 11 is crap, so year 12 should be better

how prepared am I for eco? relatively. the good thing is that I have a rudimentary understanding of the concepts in general pertaining to the real world so it does pull the weight of my shoulders a bit.

awesome! you seem fine for eco then :awesome: skim over the textbook to pick up some terminology and language you can slip into your answers to make yourself seem more sophisticated and know what you're talking about

on the other hand, wing your way through bio, should be fine

i really can't do better, i struggle with the calculations and stuff.. i'm ranked 62/77 :(
I'll drop it, shrug
that looks a lot like my english extension rank, even the cohort size ._.
and also you're allowed to drop to 10 units?? my school won't allow that until we're halfway through the hsc year (unless you have special reasons)

I've got all my brief summaries and flash cards with definitions ready. :)

Just need to watch a few more videos on khan academy about the graphs then I'll be sweet. (it's soooo much quicker to learn as opposes to a textbook)

Tbh, I find that if the presenter is more enthusiastic and entertaining, the more likely I'll understand what they're saying.

Still not confident with life-cycle theory of consumption though...

i just hate reading things because it goes into my eyes but the info just evaporates somehow
I didn't focus much on that because my teacher didn't place much emphasis on it during her teaching. Try to recall what your teacher spent the most time on and make sure you know those parts back to front. I call it strategic studying (maybe I'm just lazy)

I know what you mean. My teacher did mention there will be an emphasis on the last four topics of the prelim eco course, i.e. markets, labour markets, financial markets, government and the market economy. So that's why I'm focusing on those things. Plus, we have a study guide where it tells you which graphs you need to know.

I might be going to 11 units, but my school says it's a good idea to keep your units until half yearlies to really see how you're going.
